Giving back is one of our favorite things to do. At this time of the year, and with the economy being in an unusual state, the Humane Society is in desperate need of help. The shelter has been flooded with four legged friends that need your support. We are asking our clients and friends to please help them this year for Christmas by donating to our Christmas FOUR Them drive. Please feel free to bring ANY of the following things to Morgan Ashley Studio Salon before 12/22/09 and we will deliver your Christmas gifts to our four legged friends. Below are the items they are in need of. As always, thank you for your help and support!

Four paws wish list:
-Bath and hand towels
-Fleece blankets or large towels to help provide soft bedding for the dogs
-Baby blankets for the cats and kittens
-A steady supply of newspaper rolls for pets
-Please not: we are no longer using shredded paper due to new cleaning protocols. Due to the cost to recycle paper, donated sheds actually create unnecessary expenses.
-Stainless steel bowls (all sizes)
-Small ceramic dishes (for rabbits and other small animals)
-Unused clumping kitty litter
-Kitty litter scoops

Great news for Morgan Ashley Studio Salon! Amy is moving back to Birmingham from Chicago and we are so excited to have her join our team once again. I know all of Amy's clients will be excited to hear she's back in Birmingham for good as many of them have been hair hopping since she moved to Chicago a year ago. Amy is so talented and has no limits when it comes to hair design. We, at Morgan Ashley, are looking forward to her return and can't wait for her to share the tricks of the trade she learned while living in Chi Town!

Four years ago today, Morgan Ashley Studio Salon opened it's doors for the first time. No, it's no April Fool's joke, Morgan opened her Salon with only herself as Stylist, in a location that had very limited traffic and very little space. The negatives were obviously outweighed by her total faith in what she was doing. After a year in business, she gained 2 more stylists and the walls in that little space seemed to be getting smaller by the day. By 2007, Morgan had 8 Stylists approach her begging to work for her. Now, on April Fool's Day 2009 Morgan Ashley Studio Salon has over 15 staff members, a brand new studio and has become a part of Bumble and Bumble network. We are so blessed and so thankful for all of you!

Their due dates range from November through December, so we will keep you posted!

The mere mention of "snow" in Alabama sends the public into a frenzy. Everyone rushes out to the store to buy a loaf of bread and a gallon of milk. You know we've all done it before at some point! It's really comical how big a deal snow can be in the South, but there's definitely no denying how beautiful it is! We hope you enjoy the photos.

As most of you are aware, Morgan Ashley Studio Salon is an exclusive Bumble and Bumble Salon Being able to go to Bumble and Bumble University is such an incredible opportunity and we make it a top priority for our Stylists to go as often as possible. This past week Emily (Bumble Salon Educator), Shelley (Salon Coordinator), and Morgan were at Bumble in New York getting extensive training in order to offer our Salon the most current sought after services. We are now anticipating their returning and can not wait for them to share their knowledge with us!

After a long journey of battling Breast Cancer, Lorie Johnson passed away on Sunday, January 25, 2009. Although we didn't know Loire very long, her faith and love for the Lord has had such a profound impact on us all. We will never forget her warm presence and contagious smile. There is no doubt in that Lorie is in Heaven right now, Cancer free with no more pain! But for now our thoughts and prayers turn to the ones she left behind who loved her so dearly. Daryl's family has a long road ahead and will need all the support they can get. Our heart goes out to Lorie's mother who just recently lost her husband before Thanksgiving, and now her daughter.As for the money we raised on the Johnson's behalf in hopes they would all get to go to Disney World, we will instead be giving it to Daryl as I'm sure they will be in need. Thank you to everyone who participated and let's all remember what life is all about and how short it really is. Lorie has had such an impact on so many people by the way she lived her life and how selfless she was. How would you be remembered? Let's all truly strive to live each day if it were our last, because you never know...For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all. So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen. For what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal. 2 Corinthians 4:17-18

For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us. Romans 8:18

Precious in the sight of the LORD is the death of his saints.Psalms 116:15
